The visit of Java in 3 days!

5.00Mull was simply a great driver. He followed us for 3 days, and we loved his company. The program was followed to the letter and we greatly appreciated the accompaniment of each guide for the visits.
Perfect for travelers with little time!

5.00If you have little time, then this is the best combination. We were picked up in Surabaya (great city by the way). Our driver was punctual, polite and drove us safely to the destinations over the two days. What we would have liked to know in advance: For the waterfall, be sure to bring water shoes, bikini and swimming trunks as well as a waterproof bag and a good waterproof phone case. It's getting very wet! If you haven't visited another of the falls before, then it's quite surprising - at least we found. But this mistake has not happened to us again. After the waterfall you drive another 4h to the hotel. We left at 1:45. And that was a good thing, because there are sooooo incredible many tourists there that it takes a long time to get dropped off at King Kong Hill.
Great Trip with Dodo

5.00Highly recomended!!! I wish, I would like to give more than 5 stars! From planning to realization, everything was great! Eki from Smartine is really professional. Fast answers, implementing all my ideas in a few minutes to our itinerary. 2 weeks before our next flight has been changed from afternoon to evening and Eki helped us to remake our itinerary to see another places, then to sit at the airport... And we have got the best driver/guide for our tour! Mull, Mullindonesia is the best! Very well english speaking guide helped us to spent really beatifull 2 days in Java! Everything was on time, everythink was well organized. Mull told us a lot of information about the life of local people, about places we have visited. Really pleasant and friendly man! Thank you all!!! If you are planning to visit Java, Smartine and Mull is your first choice!

5.00Our driver Hery is a humorous and experienced guide. He was considerate and proactively offered rest slots, refreshments such as local kopi and fried banana during our trip. He was experienced because he seemed to know every local driver and guide on Mt Bromo and Tumpak Sewu. He always instructed the driver to stop at the nearest spot so that we can walk less. The spots he introduced for us to take photos were also very nice. For the trip, the itinerary was just right, not so tight schedule and not so relaxing. We were able to rest at the lunch restaurant for as long as we want, and still managed to arrive early at Ceremolawang village early for rest. It was really thrilled to witness the fascinating sunrise from King Kong hill. Highly recommend the trip.
Beautiful tour with breathtaking views
